Hello
The oil analys showed nothing alarming.
Regarding the oil on the rocker arms, it was a prolonged shutdown of several months,
and only the starter motor had been running for a few turns.
I'm thinking of installing a new Melling 10778 oil pump.
The lifters must have been cheap, with the part number engraved on them,
I couldn't identify anything !!
The news ones will be Johnson with the tie bar.
Thanks
